What apps/sites are Chrome only for you?
I tend to think this is a huge non-issue, & outsizedly bemoaned as a convenient way to dock the obvious advantage of freedom. In practice I expect this only to be an issue where it is critical, such as the top current comment's example of running Unreal Engine, which Safari just cant do. The web still has enough collective memory of the bad times that social pressure against favoring specific browsers will be strong. I havent heard actual examples of problems/ outrage yet; if it became a significant issue, I'd expect then we'd see real vocal & concerted pushback.
In general I favor not governing technology choices/alignment by fear of the unknown. We dont know yet on tbis one. Insisting on a conservative limited approach, based on fear, without enabling exploration, consigns us to limited sad fates.
